How to Service and Repair the Release Hood Cable on Ford Escort?

The process of servicing and repairing the hood cable starts with hood latch removal followed by detachments of the hood control handle and cable from the instrument panel steering column cover through nut loosening. The first step involves removing the front fender splash shield through pin-type retainer and screw removal. Replace the clips from the hood control handle and cable before connecting a suitable wire section to the hood latch part. Enter the passenger compartment area to take out both the hood control handle and its cable. The wire installation process begins by fastening it to the new hood control handle and cable near their hood latch end before pulling the assembly into its correct place. Screw the hood control handle and cable to the instrument panel steering column cover by fitting the position correctly before tightening the nut. Before reinstalling the hood latch the technician must secure the hood control cable clips and the front fender splash shield.

How to Service and Repair the Hood Cable on Ford Excursion?

A technician should begin service and repair on the hood cable by disconnecting the battery ground cable. You should start by taking out the hood latch alongside the pin-type retainers. The servicing requires access to the hood cable guide which can be exposed by moving the air deflector away before removing both the guide and any other remaining guides. Afterward, remove the powertrain control module (PCM) and the A-pillar lower trim panel followed by the nuts securing the hood cable/park brake bracket until you can lower the component from the vehicle body. Unfasten the hood cable from the handle by disconnecting the cable conduit while removing the cable. The end of the installation involves pulling out the hood cable and the dash panel grommet from inside the front of the vehicle. The installation follows the opposite steps of the removal process.
